Welcome back to another edition of Insert Caption -- the game where, in order to play, you need to really hate snakes. Hate 'em! Last week we asked you to write funny captions for a photo from Speed Racer, which hits theaters with a whole lotta color this weekend. Congrats to Anthony M. for painting a very bizarre, yet hilarious picture in our heads. (We still love ya BK!)

1. "Reasons To Burn Rubber (#5): Family-operated Burger King drive through. Fast. Hot. Creepy." -- Anthony M.

2. "Mario's Illegitimate Family..... (shhh, princess peach doesn't know)" -- Joshua B.

3. "Just keep your hands at 10 and 2, buckle your seatbelt, and are you sure you don't want to put some clothes on?" -- Nathan T.

This week, well, you may know this guy from somewhere. Can't place the face? Here, we'll help -- it starts with an 'Indiana' and ends with a 'Jones'. Put it together and you have one of this summer's most anticipated films -- not to mention we've been looking forward to this sequel for the past 20 years. But before Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hits theaters on May 22, you're going to want to get reacquainted with an old friend -- and that's where we come in: The winners of our three favorite captions will take home one Indiana Jones The Adventure Collection DVD boxed set, which includes: Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Temple of Doom & The Last Crusade. That's it to the right; ain't it purty? (Click to enlarge.) In honor of our friend Indy, it's now time for you to start whippin' out those captions! Sound off below ...

Welcome back to another edition of Insert Caption -- the game even Tony Stark would love if he wasn't a fictional character and completely made up. We're reversing the order of things for this installment; last week's winners are listed down below and after the jump, while this week's caption is, well, look down. Yup ... Speed Racer time! And this week we're giving away sooo much, it's impossible to list it all without running out of gas, er, space. One grand prize winner will race away with one Limited edition Speed Racer tool box loaded with a Soul Industry Tee, Hot Wheels 1:64 Mach 6, 1:64 Racer X, 1:24 Mach 5 and a Pullbax™ Mach 5; plus Speed and Racer X Lego Mini-figures, one Speed Racer t-shirt and so much more. Additionally, two runners-up will take home a prize package containing more shirts, backpacks and lots of other goodies. See the official rules for complete details and sound off below ...

Last week, we asked you to give us your most creative captions for a photo from the new movie Iron Man (which, in case you didn't know, is quickly becoming one of the best reviewed superhero movies of all time). In exchange for your words of wisdom, we decided to toss a brand new LG "the V" cell phone -- plus a super cool Iron Man poster -- to 10 of you. 10! Why? Because we're completely out of our minds -- that's why! (And because we love our readers more than anything. Awww.) Congrats to our ten winners, listed below and after the jump.

1. "As you can see, Flavor Flav and I are now engaged." -- Nathan T.

2. "That's right, it's all fun and games until someone trips and falls on a Lite Brite..." -- Eric W.

3. "I want you to draw me like one of your French girls wearing this ... only this!" -- Martin E.

Welcome to another edition of Insert Caption -- the online game all of your friends are ridiculously addicted to! Last week, we asked you to take a real good look at a photo from the new movie Leatherheads. From there we wanted you to stand in front of a mirror, close your eyes and make a wish. Still don't look like George Clooney? Drats. Sorry. While we try to figure out what's wrong with our Clooney Look-a-Like 3000 machine, let's give our three caption winners from last week a healthy virtual round of applause.

1. "Here, take my hand. I've never lost a game of "Red Rover" and I ain't gonna start now." -- Mike R.

2. "I thought you meant the *proverbial* s--- was going to hit the *proverbial* fan." -- Mike Z.

3. "Trust me...a pot-bellied pig demands empathy before it will become a housepet." -- Andrew W.

And speaking of things that deserve a round of applause, this week we're heading to Hawaii with a photo from the upcoming (hysterical) comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Jason Segel stars as a guy whose hottie girlfriend (Kristen Bell) dumps him hard. When he decides to take a recovery trip to Hawaii, he unfortunately didn't realize he'd be staying at the same hotel as his ex and her new man. Don't you hate it when that happens? The three lucky winners from this week will surf away with one Forgetting Sarah Marshall poster, one Forgetting Sarah Marshall t-shirt, one Forgetting Sarah Marshall tank top and one Forgetting Sarah Marshall beach towel. With all that to show off to your friends, one thing's for sure: You definitely will not forget about this movie. Forgetting Sarah Marshall hits theaters on April 18. Sound off below ...

Welcome back to another edition of Insert Caption -- the game even your parents can't resist playing! Last week, we asked you to strap on your hottest piece of exercise wear in order to give us the wittiest caption for a photo from the new film Run, Fat Boy, Run. Things didn't get too physical in the comments section, and I think we all agreed that Simon Pegg was definitely NOT bringing sexy back. However, according to our winner Christina D., he might be bringing something just a tad less ... manageable.

1. "So...Bleeker. Juno got you pregnant back?" -- Christina D.

2. "Simon heard Hans' pickup line and smirked at the irony that he actually had tickets to the gun show." -- Eric W.

3. "I knew I recognized you... You were in the Olivia Newton John Video 'Physical' huh?" -- Josh B.

This week we're sticking with boys who like to get dirty and sweaty. Not boys, men! Men who like to play with balls. (I think I'll stop here.) Yes, we're here to talk about Leatherheads -- that upcoming old school football flick starring George Clooney, John Krasinski and Renée Zellweger. The three sports behind our favorite captions will walk away with one Leatherheads poster, one Leatherheads t-shirt, one Leatherheads hat and one Leatherheads calendar. Not to mention you'll score a winning touchdown with our staff. So lace up gang, and give us everything you've got! (And maybe, just maybe, we'll take the whole team out for ice cream after the game.) Sound off below ...

Welcome back to another installment of Insert Caption -- recently hailed as the number one most addictive online game by the staff at Cinematical and Moviefone. Last week, we asked you to cuddle up next to James McAvoy and Keira Knightley (which one do you think hogs the bed?) and give us your best captions for a photo from Atonement. There was a DVD and two pretty awesome beach cruisers at stake for one lucky winner. Congrats to Shane M. for blaming the whole thing on a little girl with a big mouth (I guess it's better than blaming it on a little guy with big muscles).

1. "I think we should blame it on Briony. What could she possibly do to get back at us?" -- Shane M.

And speaking of little guys and big muscles, this week we're taking a look at a photo from the very funny Run, Fat Boy, Run (which hits theaters on March 28), starring the always-reliable Simon Pegg as a guy who takes on some serious training in order to win back the girl he let get away. And if that doesn't look exactly like me when I'm at the gym -- wow, it's like staring into a wimpy mirror. Maybe I should shut up now. Anyway, winners of our three favorite captions will run, not walk, away with one Run, Fat Boy, Run poster, one sports bottle, one sweat band, one pair of running shorts and one Nike jacket. C'mon, it's officially Spring -- time to climb out of that cave and get into shape! Sound off below fitness freaks.

And we're back with another fun-filled installment of Insert Caption! Last week, we celebrated the 10 year anniversary of one of our all-time favorite on-screen couples, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, in You've Got Mail. Things we learned from your captions: Give one character a knife and your imaginations run wild. Give Meg Ryan a knife, and, well ... we won't go there. After we sorted through all the captions (most of which placed Ryan in the shoes of a serial killer), here are the best of the best:

1. You can't be serious! Miss Scarlet, in the solarium with this knife?! -- Erin N.

2. "Meg..relax. I think you misunderstood me. I was talking about my sitcom 'Bosom Buddies'." -- Chaz K.

3. "The self-help section is in Aisle 3, but you're going to have to check your knife." -- Cathy C.

Continuing with the memorable on-screen couples theme, this week we're presenting a photo from the upcoming adventure rom-com, Fool's Gold. You fell for them in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and now Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are back to woo each other ... and remind me that I desperately need an island vacation, like, STAT. The three winning captions from this week will take home one Fool's Gold treasure chest metal coin bank, one Fool's Gold tie-die T-shirt, one bucket hat with embroidered Fool's Gold title treatment and one metal boat desk clock. Dare I say it, but you'd be a damn fool not to enter. Sound off below!

Welcome to the first official Insert Caption of 2008! Last week we asked for your best caption from the film Charlie Wilson's War, and received more than a few submissions with creepy sexual undertones. What gives? Does Tom Hanks really look a guy who has sex constantly on the mind? How about we don't answer that. Here were the three winners, all of which were awarded with a sweet Charlie Wilson's War prize package (Charlie Wilson himself not included).

1. "Houston, we've found a bra strap." -- Andrew W.

2 "Scene from the scrapped James Bond project "From Oscar with Love" -- Kurt P.

3. "Remember the good 'ole days when you were a prostitute chasing the fairy tale, and I was a simpleton who didn't know much, but knew what love was..." -- Jason A.

And now, in honor of this week's only wide release, we're giving you a chance to give us your best captions for the photo below from the new J-horror remake One Missed Call. If you thought those voicemail messages from your ex were borderline maniacal, well what if you received a voicemail from your future self ... with the date, time and details of your future death? Um, how do you say "I'd like to officially cancel my service ASAP" in Japanese? The three winners of our favorite captions will walk away with a One Missed Call t-shirt and poster ... for those times when you need to be reminded of that one call you desperately wanted to miss. Sound off below ...

It's Insert Caption craziness this week on Cinematical. On Monday, we posted not one but two photos, doubling your pleasure with hotties Halle Berry and Frances McDormand (yeah I said it) modeling MGM's summer and winter lines. At stake: Four boxed sets for four lucky winners. Congrats to our victors below, and special shout out to William G. for entering a single caption that applied to both photos, you're our Mickey Rourke Rebel of the Week.

1. "No I can't stir them; I can only shake them." -- Kurt M.

1. "I got his keys! His wife and kids are about to get Punk'd!" -- Max R.

2. "Duck...Duck....Duck...GOOSE!
-- Adi B.

3. "Hurry up with that coffee. And bring some of those donuts! I think somebody slipped Ed here some decaf, but yah, we're not too late he's still breathin." -- Chaz K.

This week we're giving away more lavish prizes, with a photo from the indie sleeper Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End, starring Johnny Depp, Keira Knightley and an incredibly cute monkey. Our grand prize winner will take home the DVD (available on Dec. 4), plus all sorts of amazing Pirates goodies (a Gentle Giant Jack Sparrow Animated Maquette, Gentle Giant Elizabeth Swann Animated Maquette, Flying Dutchman Dual Deck playset and more) that totals up to almost $600. Our first runner up gets a DVD, a Barbossa porcelain structure and Pirates action figures, while our third-place winner gets the DVD. Got that? Good.

On a personal note -- this will be my last week posting Insert Caption contests as increasing responsibilities on the Moviefone side will limit my blogging action, so I'll be passing the caption-master torch to Erik Davis. But thanks for playing along with me! We'll always have India. And Finland. And Mr. Woodcock hats.

Thanks to all who entered our Fred Claus contest for a chance to win a trip for four to Finland. As much as we'd like to send you all to Finland (OK, we're just saying that, almost all of you), we could only choose one winner, selected through a careful democratic process (similar to the Electoral College but simpler and logical). Congratulations to our winner below. Say hello to lovely head of state (and Conan O'Brien look-alike) Tarja Halonen for us. And like we told we told our India winner, though you are in no way legally (or morally) obligated, an exotic magnet is always nice. Or maybe even a snow globe.

Grand Prize Winner:

1. "Vince wished he had heeded Dorothy's warnings. He was quickly learning why nobody screws with the Lollipop Guild." -- Anthony G.

To make up for our inability to send almost all of you to Finland, we return this week with two amazing prizes to dole out. The first is one copy of the James Bond Ultimate Collector's Set, which includes every single Bond title on DVD. That's like a five-night, six-day trip around the world all in one beautifully packaged box, and without the threat of double-crosses or parasites. See the pic from Die Another Day after the jump.

Also, in honor of their new film No Country for Old Men, we're giving away three copies of the Coen Brothers Movie Collection, which includes Fargo, Raising Arizona, Miller's Crossing, Blood Simple and Barton Fink. See the pic from Fargo after the jump, and get bonus points if it's funnier when read in a thick Midwestern accent. Feel free to submit a caption for each photo in a single comment. It will help if you specify which caption is for which photo (especially if you choose to only enter one of these contests), though hopefully we'll be able to figure that out. Winners will be announced Friday. Good luck!

Ladies and gents, boys and girls (of at least 18 years of age)... it seems like just 13 days ago we were announcing the winner of a trip for two to India for our Darjeeling Limited contest. And we quite enjoyed it. So here we go again: Welcome to another International Edition of Insert Caption. This time we're sending the writer of our favorite caption for the photo below from the new holiday comedy Fred Claus on a trip for four from New York to Finland, courtesy of our friends at Warner Bros. and the Finnish Tourist Board.

As you probably know, the great country of Finland is home to Nokia, the Savonlinna Opera Festival and Renny Harlin. It's also home to Santa Claus (played in the film by Paul Giamatti; Vince Vaughn is his black-sheep brother) and Santa's Village, where the winner of our trip will get to tour during a six-day, five-night stay. While in all likelihood Paul Giamatti will not be there to greet you, Santa will be, and perhaps you'll even be able to whisper a wish into his ear. So give us the funniest, most clever, jolliest caption you've got. The winner will be announced at the launch of our next contest, Wednesday, November 21 @ 4 PM EST Monday, November 26 @ 6 PM EST. Just bookmark this link and come on back. Good luck!

It's winner MADNESS this week on Insert Caption. We're finally able to announce the grand prize winner for our Darjeeling Limited contest. Have fun in India, Alan T. (And no, he's not THE Alan T., a.k.a. fantasy dad Dr. Jason Seaver). We expect an exotic magnet or two (legal note: winners are in no way expected or obligated to purchase souvenirs, exotic magnets or otherwise, for trip providers). We'll also be sending a framed Planet Terror poster signed by Robert Rodriguez to Jordan M. (yes, THE Jordan M.) for last week's contest while our two runners up get DVDs and action figures.

1. "Look, don't hit me again but I really do think I have Bingo."
-- Alan T.

1. "And they say there are no roles left for women in Hollywood..."
-- Jordan M.

2. "This party's dead, we're outta here!" -- Peter A.

3. "Easily flammable house, check. Crowd of lost souls wandering aimlessly, check. Unattainable cool chicks all over each other, check. Yep, it's freshman year of college all over again." -- Chris O.

We're looking for a few more winners this week. And really, who needs India when you can win a tee-shirt, Frisbee, cup (the kind you drink out of, not protect the privates with), wristband and mini-poster from the new sports spoof The Comebacks? Just write one of our three captions for the pic below of David Koechner and Apollo Creed and sweet, victory could be yours, too. Good luck!

UPDATE: Winners Announced! Click Here

The good news: We are still in fact giving away a trip for two to India to the winner of last week's Darjeeling Limited contest. The bad news: Contrary to what some ill-informed stooge (me) stated in last week's post ("Winner will be announced Friday, October 11 12 @ 4:00 PM EST), we are still in the process of confirming our winner and will most likely not announce his or her name (and caption) until next Friday. As the expression goes, with free trips to India for photo caption contests comes all sorts of legal technicalities the average stooge doesn't take into account. But thanks to the thousand-plus of you who entered, we were rooting for you.

So onward with more prizes... But following up a free trip to India is hard. So below please find a photo of "two hot chicks on a motorcycle." You may also know them as Rose McGowan (soon to be Mrs. Robert Rodriguez) and Marley Shelton, stars of Rodriguez's 1973 2007 zombie movie Planet Terror, released in theaters as one-half of Grindhouse. Writers of our favorite caption will win a framed poster signed by Rodriguez, as well as the DVD and an action figure (of McGowan, not Rodriguez). Two runners up will win the DVD and action figure.
Good luck!

It's been eight months since we started awarding prizes to our weekly Insert Caption contest winners, and we've given away everything from DVD box sets to a guitar to underwear to an HD DVD player. But this week we're presenting our most excellent prize to date: a trip for two to the beautiful country of India, courtesy of our friends at Jet Airways and Fox Searchlight.

That's right, the writer of our favorite caption for the photo below from Wes Anderson's new comedy The Darjeeling Limited will win their own five-day, four-night Indian adventure (airfare and four-star hotel included) for themselves and their favorite friend or family member (or Cinematical blogger/Moviefone employee). The best part? You will not be asked to train a single employee or customer service rep while there. So scroll on down the page, check out last week's winners of our Knocked Up contest (they win DVDs, a dartboard and more), then click on the "comments" link and give us your sharpest, wittiest, funniest, awesomeist caption possible. And for those first-time players, bookmark this link here and come back and play every weekend. Our Darjeeling winner will be announced next Friday, October 12 at 4 PM EST.
Good luck!

UPDATE: WINNER ANNOUNCED! Click Here

Winners from last week's Knocked Up contest:

1. "Ummm... No, I didn't know it was Bastille Day. " -- Michael L.

2. "Just when I think you can't get *any* dumber, you go and do something like this... and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF!" -- Peter S.

3. "Exactly how much pot have you smoked today?" -- Curt T.

Wow, we got a better response to last week's Sydney White contest than we anticipated. That must mean one of two things: You really are big Amanda Bynes fans, and celebrate her entire catalog. Or maybe you're hurting for beer money and think a Bynes-autographed poster will score you some cheddar on eBay. On second thought, highly doubt it's the latter. So congrats to our Bynes maniacs below.

1. "...And then he totally gave me an A!" -- Gregory R.

2. "I can't feel my hands!"
-- Aaron L.

3. "I know! I got my Prozac perscription refilled!" -- Kayla W.

This week we're stepping it up a little, with three copies of the special one-disc edition of the Knocked Up DVD to give away. So free the inner-Apatow within you and make us "cackle" -- not only will we send you the DVD, but you'll get a Knocked Up dartboard, door hanger and bumper sticker as well. Sorry, no clothing this week. And a special heads up for next week: We'll be giving away our BIGGEST prize yet (and you know I don't use Caps Lock lightly). Bigger than the Eragon snowboard. Bigger than the guitar. Bigger than the HD DVD player. Yes, even bigger than the Mr. Woodcock hats! Good luck, and come back next Thursday at 4 PM to see this week's winners and find out what all the fuss is about...

Apologies for the late posting this week. All I'll say is that it was due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray. Or maybe that's just something I stole from an upcoming movie synopsis. Guess you'll never know, unless you're big into synopses. Either way, congratulations to our Mr. Woodcock winners from last week's contest listed below. Being so congratulatory all the time is boring, though, so I'd like to call out last week's worst caption as well: "These captions are never funny." Not only was it totally non-constructive, but the captioner didn't even use double quotes around it (I added for effect).

1. "Have you heard of The Shins? Listen to this song, it'll change your life." -- Philip G.

2. "Jock itch. You?" -- Todd G.

3. "So... still got that Bull Durham/Nuts About Sports thing going on or am I twenty years too late?" -- Matthew K.

This week we've got a photo featuring your favorite actress (no matter what you say), Amanda Bynes, in your new favorite sorority comedy (ditto) Sydney White. Not your cup of tea? Than have some fun with it, be funny, and prove last week's worst caption winner wrong. Our three favorite caption writers will win Amanda Bynes-autographed posters and a mini mirror (to look at yourself in front of your new autographed poster, obviously). Good luck!
